Lots of HIM showed for the downtown Friday beatdown. Most were on time, one was not. This is what happened…

Pledge of Allegiance

Warmup: Merkins and Goofballs IC

Count off, everybody’s here. Mosey toward Interstate 321 and hang a left to go onto Main Ave for some Route 66. Do CDD’s at whichever street lights, left or right, mind boggling I know, in the usual increasing fashion until you get to 10 reps in the last one.

Circle up and count off again.

Mosey down to the concrete benches for some Dips IC. Stroll down memory lane to where YHC knelt in the grass and got eaten alive by fire ants, then keep moseying back to the benches for more Dips IC.

Head down to McQuiter’s wall for some Step Ups IC.

Mosey from there back across Franklin heading to the parkin deck. Look out, neck’ed guy in the shadows! He may have scared us as much as we scared him. He may have been taking a wet-wipe bath. Luckily it was very dark and no harm was done. Keep moving until we get to the top.

Alarm! – Do the exercises that correspond to A – arms, L – legs, A – abs, R – “r” exercise, M – “m” exercise

Round 1 IC – Shoulder taps, lunges, LBCs, Rockette Hillbillies, Merkins – then run a lap around the top of the deck back to the start. Somewhere in the mumblechatter Whoopee tried to say that our wives will thank him, for what I don’t recall but he was very sure of his statement. Very impactful, thanks doc.

Round 2 IC – Shoulder taps, squat jumps, peter Parkers, Rosalita, Mountain Climbers – run a lap

Round 3 IC – Burpees, squats, dying cockroaches, rocky balboas, merkins – run a lap. One of the former Nantans thought it would be funny to use the one of a kind, old weinke (original to 12/15/2017) as a piece of toilet paper. Not funny because it then it had to be cremated for safety.

Mosey the long way down and around to the overpass at the ditch. Lunge across and then do 5 burpees for the train passing under us. Count Off. Lunge back across and then to the pavilion for some Mary.

Explicit instructions were given to only do ab exercises and 10 reps max. Everybody seemed to understand these very simple rules but, of course, the Canoe had to be the one to break ranks and insist that Kraken Burpees were an ab exercise. YHC let him get away with it for about 2 reps but then had to override the Douchery and get back to the task at hand. We finished up strong and that was that.

Captain Stubing has plenty of options to lead coming up, claim them while you can!
